    <p>This is probably not what you had in mind in terms of an introductory text, but Edward Yang has an ongoing series of blog posts discussing the Haskell heap, how thunks are implemented, etc.</p> <p>It's entertaining, both with the illustrations and also by virtue of explicating things without delving into too much detail for someone new to Haskell. The series covers many of your questions:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://blog.ezyang.com/2011/04/the-haskell-heap/" rel="noreferrer">The Haskell heap and how thunks are stored</a> - the first post in the series</li> <li><a href="http://blog.ezyang.com/2011/05/bindings-and-cafs-on-the-haskell-heap/" rel="noreferrer">Bindings and CAFs</a></li> <li><a href="http://blog.ezyang.com/2011/05/unraveling-the-mystery-of-the-io-monad/" rel="noreferrer">How the IO monad gets translated into primitives</a></li> </ul> <p>On a more technical level, there are a number of papers that cover (in concert with other things), parts of what you're wanting to know.:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/simonpj/papers/parallel-gc/index.htm" rel="noreferrer">A paper by SPJ, Simon Marlow et al on GC in Haskell</a> - I haven't read it, but since GC often represents a good porton of the work Haskell does, it should give insight.</li> <li><a href="http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Language_and_library_specification#The_Haskell_2010_report" rel="noreferrer">The Haskell 2010 report</a> - I'm sure you'll have heard of this, but it's too good not to link to. Can make for dry reading in places, but one of the best ways to understand what makes Haskell the way it is, at least the portions I've read.</li> <li><a href="http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/simonpj/papers/history-of-haskell/index.htm" rel="noreferrer">A history of Haskell</a> - is more technical than the name would suggest, and offers some very interesting views into Haskell's design, and the decisions behind the design. You can't help but better understand Haskell's implementation after reading it.</li> </ul>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
